The woman had exposure to live poultry before falling ill

China has reported a human case of H3N8 bird flu.

This is the third known human case and the first in an adult.

A 56-year old woman with underlying health conditions in southern China is infected with the virus.

The woman had exposure to live poultry before falling ill.

The news comes nearly a year after the H3N8 virus was confirmed in humans for the first time.

A four-year-old boy in central China became seriously ill. The family’s pets were also infected.

Details about the woman’s condition have not been released.

“No abnormalities have been found in close contacts so far,” the Guangdong CDC said.

“Experts believe that this is a sporadic case and the risk of virus transmission is low at this stage.”

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured
